Fungal siderophores : from mineral--microbe interactions to anti-pathogenicity

Fungal siderophores : from mineral--microbe interactions to anti-pathogenicity / Kalyani Dhusia, Kalpana Raja, Pramod Ramteke, editors.

In the past few decades, it has been realized through research that fungal siderophores epitomize the uptake of iron as well as other essential elements like zinc, magnesium, copper, nickel and arsenic. Understanding the chemical structures of different fungal siderophores and the membrane receptors...
